Courtney Love and daughter Frances Bean Cobain made a rare appearance together at a recent London event.

The mother and daughter have had a strained relationship in the past, including a series of quarrels and Frances filing a restraining order against her mother in 2009.

It seems that things are good between the pair now, after they posed together at the Liberatum event, celebrating Women In Creativity, at London's St Martin's Lane on Monday. Courtney was interviewed as the guest of honour.

The blonde Hole singer was pictured smiling to the camera with her arm around her dark haired daughter Frances at the event. Wearing a cream lace blouse and pencil skirt she was the image of a respectable rock star mother.

The pair appeared together in court last July to dispute the release of photographs relating to the death of Nirvana frontman Kurt Cobain, Courtney's late husband and Frances' dad. Despite the united front later that year it was reported that Frances got married to her musician boyfriend Isaiah Silva, without inviting her mother.

Though their relationship has been tumultuous over the years it's rumoured that they reconciled last month, after Courtney tweeted a picture of her daughter supporting her performance at a Los Angeles party.

"I'm so blessed to be the mother of the world's most incredible daughter. Kurt this is thinking of you dude.¥family¥motherdaughter¥francesbeancobainâ she wrote.

Singer Courtney married the Smells Like Teen Spirit star two years before he tragically died of a gunshot wound in 1994 after a suspected suicide.

Earlier this month the U.S. Seattle Police Force released photographs of the Remington shot gun the grunge singer used to kill himself, following requests by the public.

Though Courtney and Frances managed to block the release of graphic photographs of Kurt's death scene other photographs remain in the police archives, and are rumoured to include an images of a box filled with syringes and a tainted spoon, a lighter, and cigarette packet.
